[h]2017[/h]Feud With Cruz Afrika
An argument which started on the twitter social media app between Emtee and rapper Cruz Afrika led to Cruz releasing a beef track directed throwing shots at Emtee.

Apparently, Emtee responded by leaving threats and warnings in Cruz voicemail. He (Cruz Afrika) didn't take it lightly as he immediately involved the police and opened a court case of intimidation against Emtee. Emtee also opened a counter-case of intimidation against Cruz.

In a series of twitter rants which have not surprisingly been deleted, Emtee says:"How do you start beef with me‚ include my son in your wack raps then call the cops after telling you Uzonya (you piece of sh*t)."
